Is a good power play driven more by offensive talent or scheme? Is a good PK driven more by defensive talent or scheme? Is the Sabres talent over rated? I think there are major pieces missing. Some of the core are starting to look very overrated too.

I went to one once. The wife and daughters friend. Didn’t like it. No scotch or bourbon served. No substantial food served.

Everyone says Pegula is handcuffing Adams, but I doubt Pegula ran out and said “let’s give Cozens $7M”. We know that Adam’s sucks as a GM. He didn’t bring in enough good players with all the capital he acquired from gutting the team post Krueger. He botched the goaltending, giving a rebuilding team no chance and costing a young Core a Playoff birth Adams thought all his draft picks would quickly develop into stars. They haven’t yet. He never understood the timeline. He failed at finding high quality coaches, and he let one go to the Rangers. Still waiting for Kevyn to do something truly positive with this team.

The man pulling the strings is failing. He can’t find and trust anyone that can do a good job.

I would have not guessed this. We are so used to sucking.

… and the PK?

You are a loyal fan. I feel for you. I’m in the same boat. I want that Cup.

Bryson needed a game, and he was not a liability tonight. But the decision to sit Clifton hurt the PK. Muel was the most worthy of sitting. Still is.

So what do you think?

Don’t forget they gave up two on the PK. Consider this for a minute. If our PP and our PK are each performing at levels ranking in the bottom of the league, do you think we have enough good players?

Ohh my. Almost I guess.

What did the replay show?

Depends. If you’re hitting because you can’t get puck possession then you may be in trouble.

DeBrincat diving again.

That’s an honor.

To me it looks like when he is not surrounded by Red Wings, he is playing great position. I see the Wings have a lot of shots going wide, the net covered, which doesn’t count at a shot attempt either. If the Sabres allow opponents to have that much puck possession in the high danger areas, then the goalie will not have good numbers, goals will happen.

After a good 1st they played a bad 2nd. Dumb penalties and the PK was terrible.

UPL is not th3 problem tonight.

Another overpass, worse it was blind.

4 and 23 out there again. Ruff is sitting Clifton because of why?

Wings mad3cthat look easy.

Clifton is better on PK too

UPL screened but still makes another big save.

Muel with a massive failure to clear, assist Byram.

UPL bailed them out. Too much fancy overpassing. Shoot !!
